<\/p>\n
The tradition of Mediterranean Morphology Meetings (MMM) has been established in 1997 by Geert Booij (University of Leiden), Angela Ralli (University of Patras), and Sergio Scalise (University of Bologna).<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Organizing high level international meetings on Morphology and related disciplines, once every two years. MMM is open to all kinds of theoretical approaches to morphology.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Every meeting lasts two days. On the first day there is a selected topic, and the second day allows for all kinds of topics (always related to morphology). Optionally, a session dedicated to the morphology of the local language may be organized. Traditionally, on the third day a ‘social trip’ is organized in the region where the meeting is held. The opening ceremony is usually held the day before the meeting.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A call for papers is posted on Linguist List and sent to the major Linguistic Societies. The required abstracts are one-page long. They are sent to the local organizer(s), who forwards them in anonymous form to the members of the selection committee. MMM encourages young researchers to submit abstracts.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The special topic of the meeting is selected by the permanent scientific committee, jointly with the local organizer. The selection committee grades each abstract ranging from 1 (rejected) to 3 (accepted).
\nThe best rated papers are selected for oral and poster presentation.
\nEach meeting can host a maximum of 24 oral presentations (30 minutes each), 3-4 talks by the invited speakers (40-45 minutes each), and a poster session (max. 20).<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
There is also a poster session, with a maximum of 20 posters accepted.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
For each congress there are 3 invited speakers chosen by the selection committee (formed by the permanent committee and the local organizer) (at least one of the invited speakers must be a specialist of the special topic, if any). Members of the selection committee can be invited speakers, but not at the same meeting.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Congress fees are kept reasonably low in order to encourage everybody to participate. The fee is established by the permanent committee.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If (s)he wishes, (s)he may also organize a small workshop on the standard language of the country, where the meeting is held, or on one of its local dialectal varieties.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The local organizer should assume the cost of the following:<\/p>\n
The cost of additional initiatives is assumed by the participants (excursions, social trips, etc.).<\/p>\n
